Blitzen Shoe Covers

While the neoprene construction offers some water resistance, these covers are primarily designed for wind protection and insulation. They will keep your feet warm in light mist, but they are not fully waterproof for heavy rain or deep puddles.

The Blitzen covers are designed to fit most standard cycling shoes. Because they are made of flexible neoprene, they stretch to accommodate different cleat positions, but they are best suited for road or commuter shoes rather than bulky mountain bike shoes with aggressive tread.

We recommend sizing up if you are on the border of a size range, especially if you plan on wearing thicker winter socks underneath. Since these covers need to stretch over your shoe's heel and toe, a slightly looser fit is generally easier to manage than one that is too tight.

Yes, the neoprene material provides enough stretch to pull them over your shoes relatively easily. It is usually best to put the covers on your shoes before you put your shoes on your feet, or slide them over the toe first and then pull the heel tab over the back.

These covers are designed for cycling, not walking. The bottom is open to accommodate your cleats, and the neoprene material can wear out quickly if you walk on pavement or rough surfaces while wearing them.
